don't know if this happens to others, but it happens to me. it's something I watch for.
I just did the update to 10.5.6. Afterwards, launching Radiologik DJ has my soundcard assignments changed. Not too big a deal, provided I remember to check for them. I assign them back to the right soundcards, and it's good again until another update. Not every update results in this. It's probably only quicktime related updates.
In the long run, I hope there is something Jay can do to prevent this from happening. Until then, I remind people with multiple soundcard outputs to remember to check them in Radiologik DJ after any software updates.
I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and now I am not getting any output- iTunes will play through our sound board but Radiologik doesn't output anything.
Do you think this could be what you are talking about above? How do I go about reassigning soundcards?
It's in the Radiologik DJ preferences. Click the Audio tab. You can then see where you choose which output for each channel.
Jay had reduced the likelyhood of this happening by remember soundcard devices names or some such thing, where I believe it was remember a device number in the past. Since things like updates can trigger a device number change (as I understand it), having name information saved should make that more bullet proof. Perhaps a major update to snow leopard risks even that data. Hopefully you'll be able to re-assign your outputs and have it all work fine now.
I have messed around with those settings but have not been able to land on settings that work. Is there a particular way to save the settings? Should I be restarting Radiologik inbetween each setting change?
Also, have you heard of any other situations where iTunes (and every other program) outputs music with volume but Radiologik is silent?
the changes activate instantly. nothing to save.
i've never had a situation where radiologik dj wouldn't play. I'm a little puzzled. it could be possible you have your volumes set all the way to the bottom I suppose. scratching my head otherwise.
I updated my MacBook Pro (4,1 model) to Snow Leopard about five weeks ago and since then I had problems with audio and RLDJ. iTunes seemed to work without problems.
When I saved a program list sometimes RLDJ crashed (but only by "save" or "save as" progresses, not during playback). I looked inside the crash reports and found that everytime the same threat crashed (someting with "getting volume size" or so). I searched the web bud didn't find a solution.
I also noticed, that during playback RLDJ seemed to freeze for some short moments, when the next item of the program list was loaded to a palyer. The interface didn't respond for 0.5 up to 3 seconds.
On three other Macs (two Intel with Snow Leopard 10.6.2 and one PowerPC with Leopard 10.5.8) I didn't notice any of these problems. It seemed to be hard disk related and so I let interchange the internal hard disk by an apple autorized dealer. But unfortunately the bigger and faster hard disk (7.200 rpm/500 GB) didn't solve the problems.
I also reinstalled SL two times from the scratch, but no luck, always the same problems. On my web searches I found some sites where users report their problems with Snow Leopard and the workarounds they found. I triede some of them I assumed my problem could be related to, but none of them solved my problems.
At last I reverted to Leopard on the MacBook Pro and didn't have any crash of RLDJ. Only the problem with the short interface freezes occurs sometimes. I don't know what could cause this. I assumed that Quicktime could cause this. I loaded Quicktime from the Apple web site and installed it and also installed the combo update of OS 10.5.8 again. But this didn't solve the small problem.
Before the switch to Snow Leopard I never, never hat any of these problems on this MacBook Pro and RLDJ ran absolutely reliable. As I know that Jay is always looking to optimize the code of RLDJ, the observed issues are related to the machine. I'm going to observe this for the next few weeks and consider to buy a brand new MacBook Pro. Because I'm live on the air on FM every week, the machine has to run and work absolutely reliable and trouble free.
Ok, this are my experiences with Snow Leopard ...
jonstieg, here are some things I wolud do:
- delete the audio preferences of your user (~/Users/YourUser/Library/Preferences)
- delete quicktime preferences of Your user (keep in mind You have Your Quicktime pro serial at your hand in case You have QT pro)
- delete the preferences of your audio device you use
- delete the preferences of quicktime in your in the library (Your Harddisk/Library/Preferences)
- delete the preferences of the audio settings of the OS
Please keep in mind, that You don't empty the trash or better, You move the preferences into a backup folder on Your desktop, so that You can restore the files if necessary.
Then restart the machine. You probably have to setup again some settings (e. g. audio settings of OS).
Then restart again and delete PRAM at the restart progress.
I hope, these measures bring back audio. (In another case last year I had success with it).
Thanks for all your suggestions, Kaffeepause
I tried all of it and it didn't work. In the end I downgraded to Leopard and it worked fine. Not a big deal- the computer is pretty much only used for broadcasting.
I wish I could be more specific with what the problem was so that maybe the bug/issue could be fixed/identified but I just don't know.
As to the original comment from 2008, a long time ago, I saved the outputs as IDs in the preferences but after realizing they change once in a while, I made it so the outputs are saved by their names in the preferences.
